## Tigris

- `storage/tigris` | qualifies-with-caveat | evidence documented | binding volume-quota | category S3-compatible object storage, globally distributed
- needs card no, phone no, ID no, institution no | verified 2026-11-01T18:05:15.751Z, checked 2026-10-21 (inherited) | stale on 2026-11-21
- url https://www.tigrisdata.com/pricing/
- price USD 20.48 per TiB-month Standard, USD 10.24 Infrequent Access, USD 4.10 Archive or Archive Instant Retrieval (USD 0.02, 0.01 and 0.004 per GB-month of 2^30 bytes, global or single-region); multi-region USD 0.025, 0.015 and 0.006 per GB-month | parsed USD 18.63/TB-mo
- free tier: 5 GB of Standard-tier storage, 10,000 Class A requests (PUT, COPY, POST, LIST) and 100,000 Class B requests (GET, SELECT and all other) a month on every account; the allowance resets monthly, covers the Standard tier only and applies before anything is metered | unit: GB | metered on: stored-bytes | read on: 2026-10-30 | source: [1] | note: storage is billed in binary GB (2^30 bytes) as the average of the daily peak over the month; DELETE and CANCEL requests are free
- per-object cap: large objects up to 5 TB, under standard S3 multipart semantics | source: [2] | note: the page does not say whether 5 TB is decimal or binary
- retention: not stated | source: [1] | note: not stated
- egress: Free on every tier and location type: no charge for regional, region-to-region or internet egress, and no ratio or monthly cap is published; the pricing page asks for contact when bandwidth requirements are extraordinary. Reading Infrequent Access and Archive Instant Retrieval objects carries a retrieval fee, separate from egress. | metered: no
- identity: email | detail: the sign-up form asks an email address and a password, with Google and GitHub as alternatives, and shows no phone field and no card field; no card is required to start on the free allowance; a public bucket needs payment-method verification on organisations created after 18 May 2026
- interface: s3-compatible, rclone
- limits:
  - volume-quota (binding): 5 GB of Standard storage, 10,000 Class A and 100,000 Class B requests a month free; above it Standard storage is USD 0.02 per GB-month [1]
  - per-object-cap: 5 TB per object [2]
- limits note: Minimum storage duration: none on Standard, 30 days on Infrequent Access, 90 days on Archive and Archive Instant Retrieval; an object deleted, updated or transitioned earlier is billed for the full minimum, and one kept longer is billed for the days stored. Retrieval fee: USD 0.01 per GB on Infrequent Access, USD 0.03 per GB on Archive Instant Retrieval, free on Standard and Archive. An Archive object is restored before it is read: it moves to the Standard tier for a chosen duration and is billed at the Standard rate meanwhile. Storage is measured in binary GB (2^30 bytes).
- binding note: the free allowance is 5 GB of Standard storage a month; every GB-month above it is billed, so the quota ends the free path before any other limit
- interface detail: S3 API
- tooling: All S3 SDKs, rclone, bucket forking, lifecycle rules, soft deletes
- composes with: S3-compatible origin with no egress charge, usable behind a CDN or proxy front end; anonymous reads from a public bucket need payment-method verification on organisations created after 18 May 2026, so an account with no card keeps its buckets private.
- reliability: Public-bucket access is gated by payment-method verification on organisations created after 18 May 2026, stated as an abuse control; no throttle is published, and extraordinary bandwidth leads to a contact request.
- notes: Per-GB-month, 5 GB free (Standard); tiers Standard / Infrequent Access / Archive Instant Retrieval / Archive
- evidence note: free allowance, sign-up identity, egress, retrieval fees, minimum storage durations and the object cap quoted from the vendor pricing page, its Markdown version and the public-bucket and multipart documentation on 2026-10-30
- extras:
  - price_verbatim: Standard $20.00/TB at 5 TB and 20 TB. Archive $4.00/TB at 20 TB ($80/mo) with free egress and free retrieval — the best cold tier after OVH Cold Archive.
